`egui_dock`: docking support for egui

Originally created by @lain-dono, this library provides docking support for egui. It lets you open and close tabs, freely move them around, insert them in selected parts of the DockArea, and resize them.

Quick start

Add egui and egui_dock to your project's dependencies.

[dependencies]
egui = "0.22"
egui_dock = "0.6"

Then proceed by setting up egui, following its quick start guide. Once that's done, you can start using egui_dock – more details on that can be found in the documentation.

Demo

Alternatives

egui_tiles

It's a library aiming to achieve similar goals in addition to being more flexible and customizable.

One feature it supports that egui_dock does not at the moment is the ability to divide nodes into more than two children, enabling horizontal, vertical, and grid layouts.

Note

egui_tiles is much earlier in development than egui_dock and doesn't yet support a lot of features.
